A: There are two types of Bamboo Floor: Traditional Solid Bamboo Floor and Strand Woven Bamboo Floor.Traditional Solid Bamboo Floor is made from strips of bamboo that
are laid in either a horizontal or vertical formation.The strips of bamboo are
glued together to create the planks of flooring One type is horizontal, the
other is vertical.This means that there are two types of Traditional Bamboo
Floor regardless of the species, color, or whether it is solid or engineered.
The strip is thinner and less evident - strips of
bamboo are individually glued together vertically to form the plank, vertical
construction has a more subtle appearance, with a cleaner and more consistent
surface visual
The strip is wider and more evident. Horizontal construction
offers the most tradition bamboo visual and shows the knuckles of the stalk

Q: Why choose Strand Woven Bamboo Floor?
A:First, it uses renewable resources bamboo as raw material, which
is also a substitute for traditional wood-based production methods; the utilization
rate of Strand Woven Bamboo Floor in production can reach more than 90%, twicemore
than traditional production methods. The release of free formaldehyde in Strand
Woven Bamboo Floor is less than 0.35mg / L, which meets the requirements of
European and American green standards, and is therefore an ecological green
product. So, it is a sustainable production that also effectively protects the
environment.
Besides, the density of this kind of floor is also relatively high, it can reach 1200kg / m3, 1.6 times that of ordinary bamboo and hardwood floor. So it is with high hardness, high strength, high impact resistance.
Strand Woven Bamboo Floor also has great water resistance and is hard to deform. After 24 hours of testing, the expansion ratio of water absorption thickness is only 0.4%, which is much better than the European standard ≤2.0%.
Q: How to choose Bamboo Flooring?
